In the second episode of our 'Chat with our Founders' series, we dive into the early challenges of bringing Soccer Stars Academy to life. 🌱 With no playbook for success and the daunting task of engaging our Soccer Stars, our journey was filled with uncertainty... Thanks to social media and a leap of faith, we began to connect with families, sharing our passion and vision. The initial anxiety of launching our Facebook page and the fear of failure soon turned into excitement and support from our community. 📢💚 #kidsfootball #childrensfootball #funfootball #sportscoaching #franchising

Well, the first challenge for me was getting kids through the door and how do we do that? How do we put our name out there to let let people know what what I was going to be running. And so that was, that was certainly a challenge for me. Social media did play a huge part in that early, early days and still does actually, but I'm not the best on social media. So Shavon helped with that aspect of it. Advertiser class. The other big major challenge for me is, well, was my background was teaching, but it was secondary teaching. I hadn't taught to kids as young as three before, so I had to create content that. I hoped that they would find engaging hope that they would enjoy taking part in, but the reality was is I didn't know So and certainly in the early days and creating fun content that the kids would enjoy was something that I stressed quite a lot about. So for me those were the two biggest challenges was #1, could we get the kids to come along? And #2 could that provide the content and create the content that they would find engaging? Yeah, I think as well, just like putting yourself out there on social media. Like because obviously you don't want, well, the first thing you don't want to happen is for it to fail. So it's just kind of taking that that leap and having the confidence to take that that risk. And that was a big thing for us. I'll never forget we were sitting in our living room when we first just launched the Facebook page. They're both breaking it. Yeah. And and we were so nervous and then actually after it been up the page, been up for a few days on social media, the both of us were like astounded with the amount of people that were like this is amazing that you guys are doing this wishing as well. And then you kind of all your fears just kind of get set aside. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah, some challenges lecture at the start and it seems like 1,000,000 miles are going now.

😃 HAPPY PARENTS AND CHILDREN! That’s what we’re aiming for. I believe that the best businesses do the simplest things. That’s why we try to keep it simple at the Football Fun Factory®. We’re not doing anything groundbreaking or reinventing the wheel. We’ve just put a unique twist on the nation’s favourite game and focused on children having fun. Pretty simple really! Recently, Jonny Martin and I have started using the saying ‘keep it simple, Simon!’ and rather than over complicating things, we’re aiming to keep it as simple as we can. When you’re developing and growing a business it’s easy to accidentally innovate a new level of complexity into your business. That’s something that we’re aiming to avoid. #FootballFunFactory #FootballBusiness #FootballCoaching #Franchising

🚀 From Local Classes to National Franchise: The Soccer Stars Academy Journey Initially focused on addressing the local demand for child-focused, confidence-building sports activities, our growth was organic but rapid. The decision to franchise was sparked by a trip to London, where the potential for national expansion became clear. This shift allowed us to maintain our commitment to quality while reaching children across the UK. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we not only adapted to new ways of engaging with our Soccer Stars, such as online classes, but also used this time to refine our franchise model with the help of industry experts. This strategic pivot has enabled Soccer Stars Academy to emerge stronger, offering entrepreneurial opportunities while continuing to impact children's lives positively. Watch the full video to discover how our founders navigated these challenges and seized opportunities to build what is now one of the leading children’s football academies in the UK. #Entrepreneurship #Franchising #BusinessGrowth #YouthSports #SoccerStarsAcademy
